Derby Evening Telegraph article on flooding in Parwich

Posted in News, Weather on Monday September 8, 2008| 1 Comment »

We received the following email from the Derby Evening Telegraph; their reporter Claire Duffin is currently in the village (2-30pm Monday) and a photographer is on her way to picture the aftermath.  However she asked if anyone has any photos of the water in full spate at first light on Saturday.  If you do please contact either parwich@hotmail.co.uk or Claire as below:

Hi all,

I have been reading the posts on the website about the flooding with interest. I am looking to do a piece for tomorrow’s paper about the clean-up operation and would like to speak to those affected if you could please put me in touch?

My numbers are below and I will be in the village at about lunchtime to have a look for myself.

Thanks – look forward to hearing from you.

Weather explanation

Posted in Weather on Tuesday August 12, 2008| 2 Comments »

In case anyone else was as dismayed as I was this morning to see the brisk little torrents once again running through the village, you will be encouraged to read that according to the Yahoo newspage,

” … the reason we have got so much rain is a band moving north-east.”

Singing in the rain, no doubt … (sorry!)

Alsop in the winter fog.

Posted in Alsop, Photography, Weather on Tuesday March 25, 2008| 4 Comments »

Our thanks to Rob Francis, for agreeing to share these striking images with us. They were taken on the Sunday before Christmas, just below Alsop car park on the Tissington trail.

As Rob says: “The conditions were strange to say the least. One of them has the image on the photographer ( ie me) projected unto the fog – eerie!”

Update: In the comments, Peter T explains that this phenomenon – both the shadow and the rainbow circle that surrounds it – is known as “the brockenspectre and the glory“.

Please click on each photo to enlarge it.
